Speedo is coming to Meadowbrook this weekend

There's more to Michael Phelps than medals and chlorine. We know, you're wondering, "But, what?" We scoured the Olympian's Twitter account, mining it for mentions of what, besides making history, gets him going. We present a fairly comprehensive list of Michael Phelps' favorite things. And no, whiskers on kittens isn't on it. But his bulldog in a swimcap is! Also see: • Meet Megan Rossee, Phelps' new gal pal • Casting the Michael Phelps movie

Sunday and Monday at Meadowbrook Aquatic and Fitness Center, Phelps' long-time base, Speedo UK has reserved two lanes of the pool. John A. Cadigan, the club's general manager, says he knows two Olympians will be involved, as will Phelps' long-time coach, Bob Bowman. But as far as he knows, Cadigan says, Phelps himself is not scheduled to show up.

"He's retired," reminds Cadigan. "If you want to find Michael these days, you might do better to look on a golf course."
